Floor spring repairs Berkshire

Replacing a floor spring means lifting the door off, so shops in Berkshire and across the South East can arrange the work outside trading hours. Landlords looking after glass entrances in Berkshire or anywhere in the South East can add floor springs to a planned maintenance visit, rather than waiting for a failure.

What do we fix in Berkshire?

Door will not centreA double-action door should stop at the closed position. Drift usually comes from a worn spring, a loose spindle or a box out of line.

Hold-open not holdingMany floor springs can hold a door open at a set angle. When that stops working, the mechanism is usually worn.

Leaking hydraulic oilOil under the cover plate usually means the sealed unit has failed. It normally needs replacing rather than topping up.

How much does it cost in Berkshire?

Expect £295 to £695 ex VAT per floor spring. A failed floor spring at your Berkshire premises often affects the top pivot and patch fittings too, so we check those parts before pricing the new unit. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Berkshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Berkshire, including Bracknell, Maidenhead, Newbury, Reading.

Will a new floor spring fit my existing box?

Often yes, if the box and spindle match the replacement. Many makes share similar sizes, but not all do, so we check the dimensions first. Where they differ, an adapter or a new box may be needed, and a new box means opening up the floor.

Do floor springs suit fire doors?

Some do, but only models tested for the purpose and fitted as part of a tested door set. Fire doors need a closing device of at least power size EN 3 under BS EN 1154. Never swap the closer on a fire door without checking its certification.

What happens if I leave a faulty floor spring?

The door becomes harder to control and can slam or swing into people. A failed spring also strains the top pivot, the patch fittings and the glass. Toughened doors need care, because damage at an edge can cause the whole panel to break.
